Registration Today in the Religious Education Office After the 9:30, 11:00 AM and 12:30 PM Masses Two Special Notes for Parents: 1- Do not shortchange your c ­ hildren. They benefit from ­learning year after year about God’s love. Do not ­register them only to ­prepare for ­Communion and ­Confirmation. ­Religious ­Education is much more. We have programs for ­children from pre-­kindergarten through high school youth ministry. Every year our young people can take ­­advantage of classes to help them understand God’s presence in their lives. 2- Example teaches the best. Parents with elementary age children can all come for 9:30, 11:00 AM and 7:15 PM Masses on ­Sundays. At those Masses we take the younger children out so they can have their own youth oriented Liturgy of the Word. Then they return for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. Parents give great example when they accompany their children to Mass. Good example teaches! More Information Inside this Bulletin

Invite Someone to Join the Church Our RCIA (Rite of Christian ­Initiation of Adults) or C ­ atechumenate can benefit:­ •Unbaptized people who want to be ­Christians •Non-Catholics ­who want to become ­Catholic; •Catholics ­wanting Communion/ ­Confirmation.

Joining the Catholic Church: The “Original” Church

O

Adult Classe s

ur Catholic Church is the original Christian community, our ­tradition of word, ­sacrament and church life ­dating back to the time of the apostles. Other Christian groups which formed since the sixteenth century have lost different elements of the original Christian ­experience. We are anxious to share with others our Catholic vision of life and faith, ancient yet ever new. RCIA – The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults– is not like going back to school, because RCIA is more of a process of growth than a project in school. RCIA means learning not just with the head, but most importantly with the heart. Our RCIA program, also called the Catechumenate, can benefit: • Those unbaptized persons who want to become ­Christians. • Those baptized non-Catholic who want to join the Catholic community. • Adult Catholics who have not yet received First ­Communion or Confirmation. Call the office 305-2387562 Ext. 102 to speak with F ­ ather Paul for more information.

uestra Iglesia Catolica es la original communidad Cristiana, nuestra tradition de Palabra, de Sacramentos y la vida como una iglesia que empezó en el tiempo de los apostoles. Otros grupos Cristianos que se formó empezando en el siglo XVI han perdido elementos diferentes de la original experiencia Cristiana. Estamos muy entusiasmados a compartir con otros nuestra visión Catolica de la vida y de la ve, antigua pero siempre nueva. RCIA – Rito Cristiano de Iniciación para Adultos– no es revolver al colegio, porque RCIA es mas como un proceso de crecimiento que un proyecto en colegio. RCIA es aprender no simplemente con la cabeza, sino mas importante con el corazon. Nuestro RCIA programa, llamado también el Catecumenado, puede ayudar: • Adultos que no han sido bautizados • Adultos Bautizados en otra religión • Adultos Católicos que no han recibido los Sacramentos de la Eucaristia y la Confirmación Para más información puede comunicarse con Olivia Baca, 786-399-0279.

Catholic Bible Fellowship Begins the Study of

St. Paul Letters to the Corinthians I Corinthians: The Church at Corinth was “richly endowed with every gift of speech and knowledge” (1:5) Yet thee were differences relating to Church doctrine as well as improper behavior. II Corithians: Paul opens his heart. We see his hurt, pain and suffering. “For though we live in the world we are not carrying on a worldly war but have divine power to destroy stronglholds.” (10:3-4) We face these disorders and weaknesses. Paul speaks to us. Come, learn with us as we listen to God’s Word spoken through Paul. We begin: Wed. evening, Sept 14th, 7:30 pm Thurs. morning, Sept. 15th 9:30 am* *Child care provided Signups after all masses Aug. 21/22 and 27/28 This is a 27 week study.

6 Schools of Community (SoC) from Communion and Liberation (CL) to begin at Saint Louis: Communion and Liberation (CL) is a movement which grew out of the educational and catechetical methods of Msgr. Giussani. School of Community (SoC) is a weekly gathering of our peers in which we discuss the works of Msgr. Giussani and relate them to how we find Christ in our everyday lives. People gather as a community of friends in Christ to become increasingly open to His grace and grow in holiness.

Midnight Musings Pensamientos de Media Noche 8

Vocations: God Calls The Vocation Cup began in our parish in 1999 through the inspiration of Miriam Colombro. It has spread to parishes throughout the Archdiocese, the United States and in foreign countries. Just last December when Archbishop Rivas from St. Lucia was here, he spoke with Miriam and got the basic instructions from her for implementing this program in the Caribbean. Simple enough in its concept– a family or individual take the cup for a week. It reminds them to pray for vocations, for men and women to respond to God’s call to serve the Church. We have seen concrete blessings from these prayers in the different people from our parish community who have responded to the call of Jesus. Deacon Biju Vells is completing his last year of study before his ordination as a priest in May, 2012. Our parishioners George Labelle and José Villena will be ordained deacons in December, 2011. Jim Dugard and Mark Westman have been accepted into the deacon preparation program. Most recently we said good-bye to Daniel Martin, a seminarian for the Archdiocese who spent his Pastoral Year gaining parochial experience here in our parish. Last week we thanked him for all he did and shared with our parish family over the past year. Phillip Tran studies at St. Vincent Seminary and Kevin Garcia at St. John Vianney Seminary. We continue to pray for all of these men and their families as they grow more in becoming the servants of Christ’s Church that Jesus wants them to be. Each one of us has the fundamental vocation to discipleship through baptism. Each of us is called to serve others in the church. We live out this call in our marriages and families, in our community and parish ministries. Another word for the universal call of the baptized to serve is “stewardship”– how we share time, talent and treasure to build up God’s kingdom. Yet within this overall community we still need individuals, men and women, who will give of themselves through ordained ministry or the consecrated life of Religious Orders. These people continually call all of us to be faithful to the Lord. They coordinate ministries and direct programs. Please pray for those already ordained or in Religious Life that they will remain faithful to the Lord. And pray for more people to open their hearts to Christ call to serve. In Christ,

Vocaciones: Llamado de Dios La Copa Vocacional comenzó en nuestra parroquia en 1999 a través de la inspiración de Miriam Columbro. Este ministerio se ha repartidopor toda la Arquidiócesis, los Estados Unidos y otros países fuera de nuestras fronteras. El pasado Diciembre cuando el Arzobispo Rivas de Santa Lucia nos visitó, él conversó con Miriam, quien le dio las instrucciones básica para implementar éste programa en el Caribe. Es un concepto muy sencillo - una familia o individuo toma la copa por una semana. Es para recordarles que oren por las vocaciones de hombres y mujeres para que respondan al llamado de Dios de servir a la Iglesia. Nosotros hemos comprobado las bendiciones de estas oraciones en diferentes personas de nuestra comunidad parroquial que han respondido al llamado de Jesús. El Diácono Biju Vells, quien está completando su ultimo año de estudios antes de ser ordenado sacerdote en Mayo de 2012. Nuestros feligréses George Labelle y José Villena serán ordenados diáconos en Diciembre de 2011. Jim Dugard y Mark Westman han sido aceptados al programa de preparación para diáconos. Reciéntemente despedimos a Daniel Martin, un seminarista de la Arquidiócesis que pasó su Año Pastoral con nosotros. La semana pasada le mostramos nuestro agradecimiento por toda su ayuda y por su compartir con nuestra familia parroquial. Phillip Tran es estudiante en el Seminario de San Vicente y Kevin Garcia está en el Seminario de St. John Vianney. Continuamos orando por todos estos hombres y sus familias, al tiempo que van preparandose en profundidad para estar al servicio de la Igleisa de Cristo que Jesús tanto desea. Cada uno de nosotros tiene una vocación fundamental al disipulado a través del bautismo. Cada uno de nosotros esta llamado a servir a los en la iglesia. Vivimos este llamado en nuestros matrimonios y familias, en nuestra comunidad y ministerio parroquiales. Otra palabara para el llamado universal del bautismo a servir es “Stewardship” - en cómo compartimos nuestro tiempo, talento y tesoro para formar el Reino de Dios. Aun así, en esta comunidad necesitamos individuos, hombres y mujeres que se entreguen a un ministerio ordenado o que consagren su vida a la Vida Religiosa. Estas personas nos llaman continuamente a ser fieles al Señor. Ellos coordinan ministerios y dirigen programas. Por favor oren por todos los ya ordenados y los consagrados a la Vida Religiosa para que continuen fieles al Señor. Y oren para que más personas habran sus corazones al llamado de Cristo a servir. En Cristo.
